In history textbooks, there are not many women's names. We heard about the actions of Skoropadsky, Kotsyubinsky, Bandera, but we have not heard anything about their wives who had a direct impact on their husbands, and as a result on the politics of Ukraine. Such depreciation of women’s role has led to the fact that 70% of men in Ukraine are convinced that the woman's place is in the kitchen. Decision To draw attention to the problem, we chose well-known "male" surnames (Bandera, Skoropadsky, Kotsyubinsky) and told the story of women who stood behind them. Our idea was a unique packaging design for a limited batch of condensed milk. One hundred sets were sent to the leading Ukrainian media, bloggers and opinion leaders. Results The bold choice of surnames attracted the attention of 189 Ukrainian and 73 Russian media. The number of fans of the “Ichnyansky dairy and cannery” page on Facebook has increased by 1200%. The project with a budget of $ 14.69 covered 26,820,589 users. Design advertisement created by Tabasco, Ukraine for Ichnya, within the category: Food.

#CleanMyCity is a series of urban cleanups initiated by CleanMyMac X. To promote our 2019 cleanup challenge, we created Junkman, the first hero made entirely out of junk. Can you scare people into being litter-conscious? We’ve been trying to figure out just that with our CleanMyCity prank inspired by CleanMyMac X. Whenever unsuspecting folks would drop a piece of litter onto the pile, the “junk” would suddenly rise up and chase them back. This simple idea helped us get attention for our #CleanMyCity urban cleanups. Although CleanMyMac X is only a junk cleaner app, we believe that fighting junk should go beyond digital. And everyone can remove a bit of waste from this planet, whether it’s gigabytes or garbage bags.
Ideas Festival is the biggest intellectual festival in Ukraine. The festival has changed a lot, so organisers wanted to refresh and implement new vision and ideas into the festival’s visual identity. When we started looking for a new symbol of ideas, we didn’t want to use cliche associations like lamps or mind bubbles. We’ve conducted a small research and found-out, that people themselves are the best metaphor for ideas. Because people are those who create, share and implement ideas in real life. Profiles of real people have become the main element of branding: they communicate on a live brand pattern, share their experiences with each other. A Greek-style font resembles the Greek roots of the word “idea”, and peoples’ profiles remind us of pictures of ancient Greek thinkers.

There are too many messages about taste in commercials. Each new slogan becomes more complex and metaphorical: "Explosion of taste", "100% taste", "More than taste", etc. All this has gone too far. Rockets Growth R&D agency chose a different direction to tell about the taste of the new Roshen Wafers. Rather than complicating to the limit, they decided to simplify to the limit. The slogans they have created sound like what people would say in real life: “Oh, ok”, “Nice stuff”, “Tasty…”. So simple and so unusual.

Let it attend noisy parties, keep two lovers warm on a roof and dance with you at night clubs. It’s our manifesto with no words! Cognac is not for an old theater actor in front of his fireplace at home. It’s for every free young person out there. Screw bras and ties! You are not used to drinking cognac like this?

Challenge Lenovo launched its VR-headset Explorer. Its promo in Ukraine was complicated due to literary 0 of local content and lack of global applications, mostly presented by casual shooters. Insight Ukrainians travel to Europe in seek for amazing places. But sometimes beauty is just in front of your nose.

1 in 7 Ukrainian women will face breast cancer during her lifetime. Half the times the illness will claim its victim’s life. The best solution in preventing the disease is getting regular checkups. Women, especially those already having bad suspicions, tend to believe that until the diagnosis is heard, there’s a glimpse of hope that the illness will just go away eventually. That’s why convincing Ukrainian women to see a breast physician before it’s too late have become our main challenge. We get an insight from women diagnosed with breast cancer on the late 3rd-4th stage, that what holding held them back from getting a checkup sooner was the fear of bad news that "paralyzed" any further actions. However, there also could be a positive example and encouragement for other women from those who have already been in those shoes. We decided to give the women an example of courage at the very moment when they think about their breasts the most – while buying a bra. That’s how a special BRAve collection was born in cooperation with local lingerie manufacturer. Ladies who have sewed the bras became the first brave women to go through breast examination on this initiative, to now pass on the bravery baton to a woman with a handwritten note attached to each item from the special collection. We presented BRAve collection to media and influencers to launch our brave relay in social and traditional media. A beautiful mini film told the inspiring story of seamstresses and directed their message to other women: be BRAve. Film advertisement created by Be-it, Ukraine for Avon, within the category: Health.

The idea is based on the message that during UEFA EURO 2016 football becomes the foremost kind of sport on the planet. This time all other kinds of sport are on the background. Moreover, sportsmen – hockey, basketball, tennis and others players play football, falling into line with football madness. Football becomes number one game not only on French stadiums and on the screens of millions of fans, but also on hockey fields and basketball and tennis courts.

There are a lot of children who are begging in Ukraine. At least 174 of them did it against their will. They were manipulated by traffickers who hide in the shadows. Together with the UN Migration Agency, we invited people to light it up. We created an interactive installation. And exhibited it for three days during the Kyiv Lights Festival. A big black cube with one little peephole. If you look inside you will see just a begging girl. But if you take a photo using the camera flash, the picture will change. With a low production budget and a zero budget for the promo we had 5,647 flashes for three days. These people not just saw the installation. These people took photos. Photos they save on their phones and cameras. Photos they will show to someone else. After Kyiv Light Festival the installation moved to AkT, contemporary art gallery. Now, this installation is permanently exhibited in Odessa. Experiential advertisement created by ANGRY, Ukraine for UN Organization for Migration, within the category: Public Interest, NGO.
Ukrainians, both adults and children, are terribly tolerant about the violation of their rights. Our task was to show teens that they have rights and these rights must be upheld. We had to explain them how to do it without making them bored. We decided to put a teen in a position of an expert who helps other kids out when their rights are violated. We created #smthwentwrong, a chatbot quest in messengers where players got messages from the characters in need. The teens advised them what to do best and instantly they could figure out where their advice got the characters. Regardless of the players' choices, they were taught what’s the right thing to do in such situations. Also, the teens could write to us in the messengers if their rights were violated in order to have the real lawyer’s advice. They wrote indeed, and even shared their personal problems!

For the promotional campaign of the brand “Khortytsya”, it was necessary to demonstrate the ingenious methods of cooling the new bottle, that changes its color when cooled to +5 °C (41 F). We built a Rube Goldberg-like* device to perform a series of “freezing” tasks: chill the bottle with the fire extinguisher, throw it in ice water, and finally launch the bottle into the stratosphere. To take one good shot, the team spent two days in the shooting pavilion and filmed over 72 takes.

Ichnia is a city where the well-known condensed milk is produced. In autumn 2018 Ichnya was stirred up by a series of explosions in military warehouses. Associations with the brand became a nightmare. There were rumours that the plant was destroyed. It was necessary to restore the truth about the brand and to tell everyone that the plant works as before. We made the packaging of condensed milk a carrier of the idea: despite all the terrible events, Ichnya does not give up and continues to believe in the Ukrainian army. A limited batch of сraft "Combat Сondensed Milk" was developed. Six cans with the image of the combat arms together formed a panorama of full-scale combat operations. 100 such kits were distributed to leading media, bloggers and opinion leaders. Within 72 hours "Combat Condensed Milk" received 52 publications in top Ukrainian and Russian media and social networks. The total coverage of the project is 10069941 contacts.
